4 bed detached house for sale

Rockall, 34 Loch Drive, Helensburgh G84

Located in one of Helensburgh’s well established and desirable residential areas one mile to the west of the town centre, this impressive detached villa offers spacious and flexible accommodation, ideal for modern family living. Thoughtfully extended and improved over the years, the property blends 1950s character with contemporary touches.

Upon entering the property, through an enclosed porch, the ground floor opens into a large welcoming hallway. To the left of the hall is a large versatile workshop area (formerly the garage) which is a great space for storage and busy family life. There are three bright windows, filling the room with natural light and a door out to the side of the house. Across from the workshop is a beautiful bay windowed formal dining room. This room comes with a traditional tiled fireplace, and leads through to the elegant and spacious lounge. The lounge features a new stylish stone fireplace and decorative electric fire, with three full height windows, again allowing a lot of natural light in and maximising the views to the front and back gardens. There is a solid wood two door hatch leading to the generously sized modern kitchen (on the same level), fitted with high quality handmade solid wood units and integrated large gas hob, double oven, microwave, fridge and Miele dishwasher. The kitchen has sliding wooden framed patio doors leading out to the beautifully well kept large decking area. Also on this level is a downstairs cloakroom, with wc, wash hand basin, and large useful storage cupboard. There is a spacious utility room, complete with Miele washing machine, and handmade solid wood wall mounted & counter level units matching the kitchen. From here, there is access to a rear porch, which houses the boiler & central heating panel, and leads you out to the gardens.

Moving to the upstairs accommodation, the bright landing leads to four double bedrooms. The first bedroom on the right at the top of the stairs, bedroom 2, is particularly welcoming, with impressive proportions and a pleasant outlook. This bedroom is vast in size and has a large built-in wardrobe across the length of one wall, again perfect for family life. This room also features a patio door leading onto the porch roof, enjoying the views over the front gardens, Gareloch, and the surrounding area. Across the landing is the delightful fourth bedroom, overlooking the garden with views to Ardencaple Castle tower, which could also serve as a home office or nursery. It is also fitted with solid wood drawers and wardrobes. The family bathroom has a four piece suite, including a corner bath, separate shower, wc and double sink unit. The landing also provides access via a loft ladder to a spacious floored attic, complete with electric light and power sockets, offering excellent additional storage or potential for further use. Moving down the hall, bedroom 3 also benefits from a large picture window with views over the front gardens and has the added advantage of its own ensuite. The ensuite is bright and fresh, with walk-in shower enclosure, wc and wash hand basin. The spacious master bedroom, located within the upper extension, boasts double patio doors to the front gardens with sea views and a modern ensuite shower room with walk-in shower enclosure, wc and wash hand basin. There is also a large walk-in wardrobe in the master bedroom and another cupboard which could be perfect for storage or as a small craft area.

Externally, the home sits within a generous well established garden, offering months of colour throughout the year. To the front, there is a large lawn and extensive monoblocked parking area, framed by a low brick wall and gate posts. A rendered wall and metal gate provide side access to the private rear garden, which features lawns, patio, timber fencing, and a ramp to a large elevated decking area which is also accessible from the kitchen. A timber shed in the garden offers practical storage space. The property is double glazed throughout with modern PVC frames, and benefits from mains gas central heating and upgraded electrics.
